Spectrometry light source BDS100

deuterium halogentungsten halogencompact

The BDS100 is a turnkey fiber coupled UV/Vis/NIR light source providing spectral output from 200 to >1100nm. The 3W electrode-less RF induced Deuterium lamp provides UV emission and offers the advantage of low heat generation and low power consumption. The 3W Tungsten (W) Halogen lamp shares the optical path with the Deuterium (D2) lamp and provides Vis/NIR emission. The BDS100 features a safety shutter and individual On/Off controls for both the Deuterium and Tungsten lamps as well as a SMA 905 connector for fiber optic light coupling. It also includes a DC power supply. The BDS100 is ideal for spectroscopic applications because no fiber alignment is needed.
